Redline

Overview

Use this skill to review contract .docx files at paragraph level and generate:

• a tracked-changes amended .docx
• a risk-report .docx
• a .review.json review dataset

Do not collapse multiple operative paragraphs into one generic comment. Each non-empty paragraph or bullet must be reviewed on its own merits, with distinct risk analysis and replacement language where needed.

Workflow

1. Confirm the supported party and the priority risk areas.
2. Run scripts/contract_review_pipeline.py init-review for each source .docx.
3. Review the generated .review.json paragraph by paragraph.
4. For each clauses[] entry, write a specific assessment tied to that paragraph only:

- favorability - risk_level - risk_summary - why_it_matters - proposed_replacement

1. Draft specific responses for any opponent comments in opponent_comments[].
2. Run materialize to create the amended .docx and risk report .docx.
3. Verify the outputs exist and the tracked changes are readable.

Required Review Standard

• Treat each review unit as one paragraph-level issue, not a whole section summary.
• Do not reuse the same replacement text across unrelated paragraphs.
• If several bullets in the same section have different obligations, analyze and redraft them separately.
• Keep replacement language narrow and operational. Match the exact risk in the source paragraph.
• When reviewing privacy and security language, check for:

- uncapped or super-capped liability exposure - audit overreach - subprocessor approval friction - cross-border transfer restrictions - incident notification deadlines - certifications, penetration testing, and customer testing rights - unilateral policy updates - AI/security terms that exceed the actual service model

Commands

Initialize a review file:

python scripts/contract_review_pipeline.py init-review \
  --input <contract.docx> \
  --output <contract.review.json> \
  --supported-party "<party>" \
  --focus-area "<area-1>" \
  --focus-area "<area-2>" \
  --opponent-comment-author "<author-1>"

Materialize the outputs:

python scripts/contract_review_pipeline.py materialize \
  --input <contract.docx> \
  --review-json <contract.review.json> \
  --amended-output <contract.amended.docx> \
  --report-output <contract.risk-report.docx> \
  --author "Codex Redline Reviewer"
